Michael Imperioli of The Lovely Bones

The Lovely Bones star Michael Imperioli shares his playlist with ARTISTdirect.com editor and Dolor Rick Florino in this exclusive feature…

A Taste:

Lou Reed, Television, Patti Smith, Eagles of Death Metal

Michael Imperioli is a man of many talents.

Not only is he an engaging and thought provoking screen presence, but he’s also a bona fide rock n’ roller. Fronting New York City rock group, La Dolce Vita, Imperioli cranks out his own brand of rock n’ roll. So in addition to talents in front of the camera and behind the mic, he’s also branched out further into filmmaking with The Hungry Ghosts.

He wrote and directed this drama about five New Yorkers whose lives crisscross in crisis during a 36-hour period. Plus, he also is currently lighting up the screen in Peter Jackson’s The Lovely Bones.

Michael Imperioli sat down with ARTISTdirect.com editor and Dolor author Rick Florino in this exclusive interview to talk about what’s on his playlist and more. Check out his playlist below and don’t miss The Lovely Bones!

Emily Browning

Emily Browning, star of The Uninvited, shares her playlist with us

A Taste:

David Bowie, Lou Reed, The Smiths

“For some reason, I’m always attracted to these girls that have been in mental hospitals,” laughs Emily Browning, while discussing her character Anna Rydell in The Uninvited. “It sounds wacky, but I tried to find Anna within myself and bring her out from a more natural place than from watching other performances. It was a dream character to play. There’s a great range of emotions that I got to explore. Anna’s got a lot going on, and she’s truly diverse.”

Equally diverse is Emily’s taste in music, which she was extremely excited to share with ARTISTdirect.com in this exclusive feature. She had solid recommendations to pass on because she’s always surrounded by music at home in Melbourne. “My boyfriend still collects CDs insanely,” she exclaims with a laugh. “He refuses to download music so we have a ridiculous CD library at our house. I listen to lots of music.”

She opened up her iTunes playlist and gave us a look inside. Check it out below.
